• La honestidad era un cliente difícil... Una vez que empezabas a permitirte un poco de honestidad, no era fácil contenerla o limitarla a una parte de tu vida. Era como la hiedra venenosa o un inquilino mandón. Una vez allí, no podías decirle lo que tenía que hacer. Tenías que luchar de verdad para evitar que se apoderara de ti.

• No empecé a hacer cambios en mi vida hasta que tuve veintitantos años. Y de repente me dije, espera un minuto. Yo estaba tratando tan duro para ser lo que yo pensaba que se suponía que debía ser, en lugar de simplemente permitirme ser lo que yo-lo que yo era o lo que soy.

• Were God to show grace to all of Adam's descendants, men would at once conclude that He was righteously compelled to take them to heaven as meet compensation for allowing the human race to fall into sin. But the great God in under no obligation to any of his creatures, least of all to those who are rebels against him.

• An important part of building a new culture was allowing people to complain about their past. At first, the more they complained, the worse the past would seem. But by venting, people could start to resolve the past. By bitching and bitching and bitching, they could exhaust the drama of their own horror stories. Grow bored. Only then could they accept a new story for their lives. Move forward.

• Funny thing, your brain, how it always functions on one level or another. How, even stuck in some sort of subconcious limbo, it works your lungs, your muscle twitches, your heart, in fact, in symphony with your heart, allowing it to feel love. Pain. Jealousy. Guilt. I wonder if it’s the same for people, lost in comas. Is there really such a thing

• Puede que te encuentres en una encrucijada en tu vida. Puede que tengas asuntos que resolver; personas a las que necesitas perdonar. Puedes tomar uno de los dos caminos. Puedes ignorar lo que ahora sabes que es verdad y seguir enterrando esa amargura en tu vida, empujándola más profundamente y permitiendo que te envenene y contamine a ti y a los que te rodean. O puedes tomar una decisión mucho mejor sacándolo a la luz y pidiéndole a Dios que te ayude a perdonar totalmente y dejarlo ir.

• We are here on this earth to know God intimately, fully, correctly, and contagiously; to house His holy person in our very bodies, allowing Him to showcase to the world around us His loving nature, His attitude, His thoughts, His emotions, and His actions through the way we live every moment of our lives.

• In Jones's experience, the decision to turn one's life around in a different direction rarely arrived with fireworks and marching bands. Often, the decision came with tears and regret. Then, almost impossibly, the power of forgiveness would fill an unseen void, allowing a new day's optimism and sense of purpose to take hold and point that life in a new direction.

• The trouble with aggressive nonsmokers is that they feel they are doing you a favor by not allowing you to smoke. They seem to think that one day you'll look back and thank them for those precious fifteen seconds they just added to your life. What they don't understand is that those are just fifteen more seconds you can spend hating their guts and plotting revenge.

• Since I’m presuming you don’t mean you finally bought him a leash, let me say simply that there is a big difference between allowing an animal to ravage you and allowing yourself to be ravaged. One is common. The other is art. It is planned. Crafted, even. Only capable of being done by a master.

• Our life of contemplation shall retain the following characteristics: —missionary: by going out physically or in spirit in search of souls all over the universe. —contemplative: by gathering the whole universe at the very center of our hearts where the Lord of the universe abides, and allowing the pure water of divine grace to flow plentifully and unceasingly from the source itself, on the whole of his creation. —universal: by praying and contemplating with all and for all, especially with and for the spiritually poorest of the poor.

• Sólo deben considerarse faltas graves: no respetar los derechos de los demás; dejarse paralizar por el miedo; sentirse culpable; creer que uno no merece el bien o el mal que le ocurre en la vida; ser cobarde. Amaremos a nuestros enemigos, pero no haremos alianzas con ellos. Fueron puestos en nuestro camino para probar nuestra espada, y debemos, por respeto a ellos, luchar contra ellos. Elegiremos a nuestros enemigos.
